| − | 4. Loosen the nuts to until you get them near the end of the bolt. You do not want to take them off yet. You want to drop the tank but let the nuts/straps hold it up still<br>

| − | 5. Once the tank has dropped a bit, its time to disconnect the stock fuel lines and pump/sender electrical harness. The wiring harness has a red lock on it. Push the red tab towards the rear of the truck. Then push the grey U shaped tab down and disconnect the connector<br>

| − | 6. To disconnect the fuel lines, loop a ziptie around the fuel line towards the outside of the truck. You want to start the ziptie but do not tighten it yet. Slowly slide the ziptie to the end of the fitting. There are 2 clips that must be pushed down at the same time before you can remove the fuel fitting. You are using the ziptie to clamp down on the two fittings at the same time. One is on the top of the fitting and one on the bottom side. Then push the fuel line off the pump.<br>
